42-year-old pop star Britney Spears has revealed that she has gone through many difficulties since separating from her third husband, Sam Asghari, last summer.
In a post on Instagram, Britney Spears shared her feelings along with a video of her dancing to Madonna’s song “I’m Addicted.” The singer wrote: “This is me almost a year ago, in September. I looked younger and much slimmer. I guess I need to be stronger, slow down, and reflect on the past year because I was putting on a fake confidence after the divorce.”
Britney admitted that she has gone through many tough moments after the breakup and stated that she is just a normal person who can make mistakes. The “Gimme More” singer expressed: “I really need to go back and adjust myself, and I might do a few more therapy sessions. I’m sorry for not being perfect. I will try to regain my confidence and determination like before.”
Britney Spears and Sam Asghari separated in July last year and filed for divorce in August, just over a year after getting married. In the filing, Sam stated that the marriage ended due to “irreconcilable differences.” The couple parted amicably and continued to speak well of each other. The 30-year-old actor shared that he always viewed his time with Britney as “a blessing.”
After the divorce, Sam Asghari focused on advancing his acting career and has not publicly disclosed any new relationships. Meanwhile, Britney has been spending time taking care of herself, mending relationships with loved ones, and hanging out with a few friends. Last year, U.S. media reported that Britney was dating her former housekeeper Paul Soliz—a person with a notorious past involving prison time. In May, the singer was reportedly involved in a heated argument with Paul in a hotel room in Los Angeles and was photographed in a disheveled state, clutching her blankets and leaving.
Recently, in an Instagram post, Britney Spears announced that she was single again, implying her breakup with Paul Soliz. The pop star accused Paul of exploiting her and secretly calling paparazzi to take pictures of them multiple times.
Britney told friends she was happy to have finally seen Paul’s true nature and ended the relationship. The singer is said to be living positively with her brother, Bryan Spears—who moved in with her when he learned that she was facing difficulties.
